UK :"Vi släppte in många tokstollar - och vaknade för sent"

Nuvarande brittiske premiärministern Cameron

i ett samtal med amerikanska diplomater 2009:

Holbrooke pressed Cameron to help combat

terrorism by capitalising on the "striking

connections" between the large Pakistani

community in the UK and "its home country".

**

"Cameron noted that most of the approximately

1 million UK citizens of Pakistani origin (mostly

Punjabis and Kashmiris) living in the UK were

not pro-Taliban but had been radicalised by the

Iraq war and were militant over Kashmir.

The Conservative party leader agreed that HMG

(=regeringen) 'must get UK-Pakistan relations

right' and stressed the Conservatives' commitment

to this goal should they assume power."

**

Cameron went on to criticise Labour's dealing

with groups such as Hizb-ut-Tahrir and the

Muslim Council of Britain.

"On the radicalisation of British Pakistanis,

Cameron said the UK had 'gotten it wrong

domestically' … He argued that PM [Gordon]

Brown's policy had been too willing to engage

with radicalised but non-violent Muslim groups …

'We let in some crazies,' Cameron said, 'and

didn't wake up soon enough.'"
